A List of Things.

1. It’s been awhile since I last posted. I know.
2. It’s Halloween! Which means I eat a little candy and sit in my room, maybe watch a movie. (I haven’t watched one yet. I will do so after I’ve posted here.) My parents had a strict cut-off date for trick-or-treating: in 6th grade, you’ve officially outgrown it.
3. My poster fell down. I’m not allowed to use thumb tacks to hang my posters up, but that tacky rubber stuff I’m supposed to use anyways sucks.
4. I just brushed my teeth. But I still want to eat candy. Gah.
5. I’m reading Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister by Gregory Maguire. It’s pretty good so far.
6. I’m starting Nanowrimo tomorrow — National Novel Writing Month. On top of my seven classes and attempted adjustment to college life, I’m going to attempt to write 50,000 words in one month. I can’t tell if I’m an optimist or a fool at this point, if there’s even a difference.
7. I’m listening to “Monsieur’s Departure” by Qntal. It’s a New Agey song based off “On Monsieur’s Departure” by Queen Elizabeth 1 (1533 – 1603).
8. Everybody else appears to be going to parties and dressing up. You know, having “fun.” I feel very disconnected from other people right now — barely human, just some wisp sitting at a desk and typing out barely-formed ideas.
